This is complete clickbait BS. He barely did much of anything on any of the games he "worked on," he was mostly just a PR and business person. Sounds like people are getting desperate to damage control Nintendo's current state of affairs after all the stuff that's happening with NX (or lack thereof) and the mess Pokemon GO has become.

You clearly haven't watched the Gaming Historian doc on YouTube or read the stories about Iwata from his contemporaries and co-workers. He was a tireless worker as a developer, programmer, leader, and president. Melee, Earthbound, Gold and Silver, Kirby, Wii, and DS wouldn't have been why they are if it weren't for his help and guidance. Whether through success or failure, he did his job with the best of his ability.
